CYCLONE NANAUK UPDATE JUNE 11, 2014, WEDNESDAY, 0300 HRS GMT
As we have said earlier cyclone Nanauk in the Arabian Sea is going to be quite a monster storm. JTWC estimates that on June 12 and June 13 the normal winds in the storm will be a whopping 150 kph. They will gust up to a devastating 185 kph.
From Wednesday to Saturday morning it is going to be a severe cyclonic storm. It will weaken slightly to a cyclonic storm when it will be about to touch Oman on Sunday. But even then it will pack very strong winds, torrential rainfall and tall waves on the coast.
The worst hit will be the island towns of Kalban and Dawwah.
We hope the Oman Met Dept has duly warned the public at large of the upcoming hazard. Other models suggest the storm may come earlier.
